NEOSHO, Missouri -
A Neosho police officer responded to a Love's gas station early Thursday morning when they received reports of an intoxicated driver.

Investigators say Joshua Daniels tried to drive away but was eventually stopped by the officer in the parking lot.

"A 52-year-old white male from Tulsa, Oklahoma exited the vehicle, at which time the officer exited his vehicle,” said Neosho Chief of Police David Kennedy. “The subject then removed a handgun from behind his body and raised it toward the officer."
